BY ELMER C. WAI.ZER United Press Financial Editor NEW YORK, June 3.—Weakness in a few special issues unsettled the stock market after a fair rally in the early trading. Prices around noon were mixed with a few gains ranging to more than a point and losses running up to nearly 4 points. Pressure converged on Eastman Kodak, which broke to anew low at 11814, off 3%; J. I. Case 60V*, off 3%; Du Pont 71%, off 1, and Radio 13, off %. Wider declines occurred in a few other issues on smaller volume. Industrial Rayon dipped to 21%, off 3’L, and Youngstown Sheet and Tube dissented stock broke 55 points to anew low at 35. U. S. Steel Breaks United States Steel broke to 83% from an early high of 85%. Corresponding declines from their highs were made by American Can, General Motors, General Electric and other leaders. , Copper shares drifted to new low levels for many years, influenced by further reductions in the price for the metal. Some copper was sold here at 8% cents a pound, while the London price set anew record low. t Oil shares were bid up during the early trading on the Standard of New York-Vacuum merger victory, but they lost most of the gains. Rails were up better than other groups for a time after the opening, but gains were not held. Utilities declined slightly below the previous close. Power Output Off Among adverse factors today were a decline of 3.8 per cent in electric power output; a drop of from 44 to 42 per cent in steel production; a rise of 25,000 barrels daily in crude oil output and further price reductions in crude oil. Favorable Items included a rise in car loadings for the week ended May 23, reported today; low steel Inventories; a sharp decline in brokerage loans to 1922 levels and heavy oversubscription of the $800,000,000 offering of United States treasury 3% per cent bonds.

In the Stock Market
(By Thomson & McKinnon) NEW YORK, June 2.—Pressure on stocks at least moderated today. In fact, the market made several attempts to stage a fair rally. Belated liquidation carried over from Monday was absorbed early in a creditable fashion. This encouraged short covering as well as some outside buying. Tension ove> financial conditions abroad was somewhat relieved by the announcement that the federal reserve bank was co-operating with the International bank in extending credit to the Austrian Central bank. The improved sentiment, however, was not to endure long. Pressure was resumed with the leading rails, United States Steel and the utilities bearing the brunt. Liquidation in the utility stocks was quite apparent. The impression was that much of the selling in that department was inspired by remarks of Governor Pinchot, attacking private control of our public electric utilities. Naturally with investors already confused over the earnings prospects of industry in general, it needed only the slightest suggestion of further obstacles to discourage buying. Notwithstanding it was consoling to witness even partial relief from the recent unremitting pressure. Once that factor has been overcome a better measure of confidence would be restored.

FARM BOARD'S ACTION SENDS ' WHEAT LOWER Cash Month Collapses 13 1-2 Cents at Minneapolis: Corn Uneven. By HAROLD E. RAINVILLE United Press C-taff Corresnondent CHICAGO, June 3.—Demoralized by the withdrawal of the farm board from the wheat market, prices skidded sharply lower on the Board of Trade today and closed with but partial recoveries. June Collapsed at Minneapolis and Duluth, falling 131 2 c at the former market and 12 j 2C at the latter, although off onlv around 5Hc here. The new crop wheat futures fell to new low levels for the season for all deliveries, July falling more than 2Vsc at one time to 57He per bushel. President Milnor and Chairman Stone confirmed the report around noon. Corn Options Rally July wheat and corn sold at the same price at one time and July corn was around 4 cents over the September delivery. Short covering in the nearby month rallied corn back to around the previous close with July advancing. Oats moved with the major grains, September and December corn and July oats also set new lows during the day. At the close wheat was H to 2H cent lower; corn was U cent lower to I2 cent higher, and oats were H to Vi cent lower. Provisions were firm. Liverpool was lower on the reported rains in Canada and on the disappointing action at Winnipeg in response to the bullish crop report Tuesday, closing 1 cent lower. Winnipeg was closed today. Trade was cautious and quiet after the opening. The cash market was inactive with no sales. Receipts were 55 cars. Oats Change Little Corn started lower on the favorable weather, but rallied with wheat and went fractionally above Tuesday’s closing levels. Prices held the advance well during the morning until decided weakness in wheat caused a % to 3 S cent recession at mid-session. Receipts continue very light. Cash prices were unchanged to 1 cent lower. Receipts were 86 cars. Oats made very little change, starting around steady and lowing Vs to H cent off at mid-morning. The market was featureless with the action of wheat and corn dominating the trade. Cash prices were unchanged. Receipts were 18 cars. Chicago Grain Table ■—J unc 3 WHEAT— Prey. Open. High. Low.
